The box is a reference to the Weighted Companion Cube in Portal, such as the small text in the description, and where you have to dump it into an incinerator.
*This item is a reference to the Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube from ''[[Wikipedia:Portal (video game)|Portal]]'', one of the games in Valve's ''[[Wikipedia:The Orange Box|The Orange Box]]''. Since the Cube's appearance in a single level of the game, it has become a cultural phenomenon. The disclaimer in the item description is taken verbatim from said level, with "the Enrichment Center" replaced by "Uncle Crimbo and Associates Corporation"; and the terrarium text refers to the player's forced incineration of the Cube at the end of the level.
*The plural form, "boxen," is a reference to a humorous extrapolation of the irregular plural "oxen"; if more than one ox is a group of oxen, more than one fox is a group of foxen, and more than one box is a group of boxen. See [[wiktionary:boxen|wiktionary]].
*The mention of "all eight sides" is yet another instance of a running gag about VEGeteriAN having believed the image of the [[ice-cold six-pack]] to show 8 beers.


The plural 'boxen' is a reference to Brian Regan's stand-up comedy, specifically about not being able to spell in school.
